    The Stippelberg is a large nature reserve. Yet it is well hidden in the east of Brabant, near the village of De Rips. Walk in the eastern part of the Stippelberg over the beautiful lanes that belong to the country house. And admire the rhododendrons that brighten up the estate.

    A striking feature of the Stippelberg are the many hills in the middle of the forest. All those 'dots' are drifting dunes created by sand drifts. The Stippelberg owes its name to these hills. Due to afforestation for wood production, you can now find an extensive pine forest here. Take a walk in this forest over the dots in the landscape.

      A place that you really have to see is d’n Blikken Emmer. This place is located on top of the highest stippel. But what exactly can you admire? At this spot you can see a bucket hanging on top of a pole. Now you might think, why a bucket? In the past, when forest workers were allowed to take a break, this bucket was hit. It was also a fire alarm, because you had a good view of the estate from this spot.

      On the other side of the Stippelberg, the eastern part, you won’t find any stippels. Here you will find beautiful oak and beech avenues that belong to the country house. Around this beautiful English-style villa you can admire the rhododendrons, currant trees and other flowering shrubs that make the estate even more beautiful. Want to delve even deeper into the area? Then you will suddenly find yourself at the edge of the forest. Here you will see a landscape as the Peel once looked. With heather and solitary Scots pines.

        In the landscape on the Stippelberg you can see a division. Millions of years ago, fault lines were created. This was caused by shifting layers of earth. Here on the Stippelberg we have the Milheezer fault line, a branch of the Peelrand fault. You can see this in the sudden difference in height and difference in vegetation in the area.
